Ford Motor Company today announces a series of changes in its senior
leadership team to continue delivering the company's One Ford plan for
profitable growth.

J Mays, group vice president and chief creative officer, Design, is
retiring after more than 33 years in the automotive industry. In parallel,
Moray Callum is elected a Ford Motor Company officer and named vice
president, Design.

Throughout his 16-year career at Ford, Mays led development of the
global Ford design language evident in most of the vehicles the company
produces around the world. In particular, Mays led the teams that developed
the design for the highly acclaimed Ford Fusion, Focus, Fiesta, Taurus,
Mustang and F-150. He also was responsible for several significant concept
vehicles, including the Ford Atlas, Evos, 427, Forty-Nine, Shelby GR-1,
Lincoln MKZ and MKC.

Mays joined Ford in 1997 as vice president, Design. He was named group
vice president in 2003 and one year later took on the expanded role of
chief creative officer.

"The bold and sophisticated design language that J Mays pioneered will
be visible for years to come in Ford vehicles and the auto industry
overall," said Mark Fields, Ford chief operating officer. "In addition to
his talent as a world-class designer, J has brought together one of the
most talented design teams in the business. We are grateful for his
creativity and leadership and congratulate him on his retirement from
Ford."

Succeeding Mays is Moray Callum, currently executive director, Design,
The Americas. He will report to Raj Nair, group vice president, Global
Product Development.

Callum will lead the design of all concept and production vehicles for
the Ford and Lincoln brands globally. Since 2006, Callum has had overall
responsibility for the design of all cars and trucks designed in Ford's
North and South America studios and the new Lincoln products. His successes
include the new Ford Fusion, Explorer, Mustang, EcoSport and Lincoln MKZ.
Prior to that, Callum led Mazda's design transformation from 2001 to 2006,
based in Japan.

Jim Tetreault, vice president, North America Manufacturing, has elected
to retire after more than 36 years in the automotive industry and 25 years
with Ford. Succeeding Tetreault will be Bruce Hettle, who is elected a Ford
Motor Company officer and named vice president, North America
Manufacturing.

For the past five years, Tetreault has been responsible for Ford's North
America manufacturing footprint – its largest in the world, with more
than 30 manufacturing plants. Tetreault played a key role in ongoing
efforts to improve manufacturing flexibility and efficiency. He also
oversaw a product expansion in the region and the company's seamless
conversion to global platforms. Prior to this, Tetreault served as vice
president, Ford of Europe Manufacturing, for three years and held numerous
positions in plant operations and staff functions throughout his
career.

"Jim's strong leadership and attention to detail will be missed," said
Joe Hinrichs, executive vice president and president, The Americas. "He has
brought out the best in people and in our global manufacturing process
across two continents. We are grateful for Jim's leadership, and we wish
him the best in his retirement."

Hettle, currently executive director, Global Vehicle Operations
Manufacturing Engineering, will be responsible for all North America
manufacturing facilities. In his new role, Hettle will put a strong focus
on the company's goal of increasing manufacturing flexibility, efficiency,
quality and productivity. Hettle has spent his entire 27-year career in
manufacturing with Ford, and has led the company's global manufacturing
engineering organization for vehicle operations since 2008. In addition to
other leadership roles, he has served as director, Manufacturing Business
Office, plant manager for Wayne Stamping and Assembly and Edison Assembly.
He will report to Hinrichs and to John Fleming, executive vice president,
Global Manufacturing and Labor Affairs.

Marty Mulloy, vice president, Labor Affairs, who has been with the
company for more than 34 years, also is retiring. He will be succeeded by
Bill Dirksen, who is elected a Ford Motor Company officer and named vice
president, Labor Affairs.

Mulloy was appointed to his current position in 2005. He has been
responsible for global labor policy and negotiations covering Ford's
approximately 117,000 hourly employees. He led the company's successful
2007, 2009 and 2011 contract negotiations with the United Auto Workers. His
career includes a variety of positions in Human Resources and Labor
Affairs, including serving as the company's most senior HR leader in The
Americas, Australia and Manufacturing.

"Marty's enthusiasm and love for Ford is infectious," said Fleming. "His
dedication to collaboration and inclusiveness has strengthened our
relationships with the UAW and our hourly employees around the world. Marty
will be missed, and we are grateful for his three decades of service."

In his new role, Dirksen, who has been executive director, U.S. Labor
Affairs, since 2007, will be responsible for labor negotiations and labor
policy globally for the company's union employees. He joined Ford Motor
Company in 1985, and has served as the senior HR leader in Ford Credit,
Manufacturing and Quality, and Australia prior to moving to the U.S. Labor
Affairs position seven years ago. Together with Mulloy, Dirksen played a
key role in leading the company's 2007, 2009 and 2011 UAW negotiations.
Dirksen will report to Fleming and to Felicia Fields, group vice president,
Human Resources and Corporate Services.

Ford also is announcing the election of Steven Armstrong as a company
officer and president, Ford South America, reporting to Hinrichs.

For the past 18 months, Armstrong has been president, Ford of Brazil,
leading all aspects of the company's largest business unit in South
America. Prior to this, Armstrong served as chief operating officer, Volvo
Cars. Throughout his more than 25-year career, Armstrong has held a variety
of senior management and purchasing positions with Jaguar, Ford of Europe
and Volvo.
